Qume's Park ~NEW PROCEDURES FOR YOUNG OFFENDERS The 'special circumstances of Young offenders are a cause of concern for family members, the larger com- nunity and legislators alike. Thse federal government has taken action which has serious implications for our legisiation regarding young offenders. For thse past 75 years, a federal act has applied to pro- vincial offences committed ly young persons. However, the Young Offenders Act, *which is expected to take ef- fect on April lst of this year, applies only to offences under federal statutes. Attorney General Roy IMcMurtry hias- proposed new procedures to deal with young persons charged with of fences under provincial and municipal laws. While retain- ing the framework of the pre- sent Provincial Offences Act, Mr. McMurtry has introduc- cd modifications which recognize the special cir- cumstances of Young of- fenders. These changes will apply to young persons who are bet- ween the ages of 12 and 15 years: * AIl charges against a young provincial offender will have to be brought before a court. * Parents of the young per- son will be poified of the charges.
